I was transported from Lobotomy Corporation to another world.

Reed is now nailed to the wall, blood is flowing everywhere, and his consciousness is somewhat blurred.

Reed is indeed very strong, possessing immense power and equipment; however, his opponent is, after all, a god.

The mayor's choice for Red was to recruit him to his side; the book contains many accounts of gods.

Wars involving gods are often depicted as gods fighting against each other, or nations uniting to fight against a particular god.

Only when there are enough people and all their strength is gathered together can they contend with God, except for Red.

Red fought God single-handedly to a standstill, but in the end, it was God who wore Red down and defeated him.

If Reed had been any stronger, he might have actually been able to kill a god single-handedly.

Neither in books nor in other countries has there been a story of someone defeating a god by themselves.

Some are just ordinary stories, told in flowery language, but they're not true.

The mayor didn't believe there was really anyone who could fight a god to a standstill, so at first he wasn't afraid and even thought Reed was too arrogant.

Then, when he saw that Red could fight God to a standstill, he panicked because it was too unbelievable and too outrageous!

Only after Reid was completely under control did the mayor finally feel relieved.

A person who can rival the gods is hard not to be attracted to, which is why the mayor gave Red a choice.

During their fight, Reed was stabbed, thrown, hit, and had his bones pierced.

Reed didn't utter a sound during this whole process; shouldn't we recruit such an extraordinary talent?

Next, we enter Reed's mind.

If I quit, I can get double the money or even more than before...

This seems pretty good; fighting this disgusting thing is too much trouble.

Giving up is the best option; it allows you to survive and gain more than others...

………………

But why do I feel a little annoyed?

Was it because he was beaten up like this? Or because of the unpleasant things the mayor said?

I don't understand... If it were my past self, I would definitely choose this option that has the best of both worlds!

But why the hesitation now? What is there to hesitate about?

I can't figure it out... It's so frustrating... Why is that?

Reed heard the two women's screams of struggle and slowly raised his head to look to his left.

The two women were being strangled by tentacles, and the sound of bones cracking could be heard in the distance.

The two women were being strangled, their eyes tightly shut, screaming, trying to move but unable to.

Is my hesitation because of these two people?

But compared to the other option, which offers both money and survival, this is clearly the best choice.

Why would I choose something that's clearly a bad option? It doesn't benefit me at all.

Due to prolonged and excessive bleeding, Reed's eyes slowly closed.

I entered a semi-conscious state and reminisced about the past.

[Back Alley Area]

At that time, I was just a level 9 finisher, and I met someone who was a level 9 finisher with more experience than me.

We became friends through a two-person project. Neither of us worked for an agency; we were basically freelancers.

After that, he became the level 8 finisher first, and then it was his turn. After I reached level 8, he hugged me and said we should celebrate.

He wanted to take me to a street stall to eat, but that stall was notoriously chaotic; to be precise, the street itself was quite chaotic.

I didn't want to go because I was scared, but he insisted on taking me, and he seemed to be in a hurry.

Since he is my friend and we've known each other for a while, I chose...

1. [Agree]

2. [Refuse]

After all, there was probably no danger between the two of them being together, especially since it was a celebration for her, so she made the choice and trusted him.

Less than a minute after arriving at the street, several people suddenly appeared in the alley and pinned him down.

They punched and kicked him, including his friend.

He probably wanted me to die knowing why; while I was being beaten, he said something like...

"Consider the past two months of knowing you as a waste of time. Sometimes I genuinely treated you like a brother."

"The reason this situation occurred is because I fattened up the pig. Compared to having another so-called brother, I think your equipment and organs are better."

"And another thing, you're such an idiot, so stupid and naive. If it weren't for me protecting you, you'd be dead out there in less than a month. You should be thanking me!"

After fighting for a while, they took out knives and started cutting themselves. Without anesthesia, they screamed in pain.

Perhaps because of its own struggle, the cutting process was slowed down, just in time for the scavenger to emerge.

They abandoned me, this pig, because my screams and bloodstains would attract the street cleaners.

A minute later I stood up again, covered in blood, and all my equipment was gone.

Without even two pieces of clothing to cover his shame, he covered his blood-soaked body and ran back to his cramped rented room.

I was seen by many people along the way, it was so embarrassing...

I'm such an idiot...

[Finish]

From then on, I became indecisive, didn't want to get close to anyone, and learned to be wary...

Those words from that so-called friend taught me a lesson: friends and brothers are all fake; only money and self-interest will never betray you.

Reed slowly opened his eyes, but he was still in a semi-conscious state. He remembered...

【Stories of All Things Guild.1】

"Reed! Your outfit will scare the customers! Be more serious!" Rena stood in front of Reed, who was taller than her.

Reed yawned. "I just need to stay in my room..."

"No! I called you out here so you could learn how not to scare people! You can't keep doing this!"

"As long as I don't come out, it'll be fine, right?" Reed muttered to himself.

Rena tossed a set of clothes to Reed. "No way, you'll get out of here someday! Put this on!"

Reed ignored "I don't need it".

"That won't do! Fine, I'll give you two choices! 1. Wear the clothes! 2. Take what I put on your head!"

Reed chose option 2, and Rena told him to sit in the chair.

After a while, a white bow appeared in Reed's hair, and Rena smiled for a long time...

【Stories of All Things Guild.2】

“That’s not how you do it, Reed. You have to do it like this first…” Alice, who was weaving on the ground, reached out and took Reed’s hand.

Reed was holding two needles and thread, looking utterly dejected.

"Liss, you can't help him! But we've already agreed on the competition!" Anlisa looked at the two of them with some helplessness.

"Besides, today is supposed to be Redner's cleaning day, but he insisted on slacking off."

Alice smiled and guided Reed's hand through the thread. "Don't worry~ Reed still has to clean. If Reed beats me, then I'll have to clean too~"

Reed scratched his head. "Ugh, this is so annoying, I'm not sewing this stuff anymore."

(*'▽'*)? "No way! Once the game starts, it can't end! You have to be patient! I'll teach you."

In the end, Reed still didn't learn how to weave, but with Alice's help, he managed to finish...

【Finish】

Reed opened his eyes wide, waking up from a semi-conscious state...

In the daily routine of the union, these are clearly just trivial matters, yet they've kept me from getting a good night's sleep.

But why do I just feel... it's pretty good...?

It's a little annoying, but not unpleasant...

Reed reminisced about many things from the past, and finally...

Don't let a poor first impression from the past influence you; not everyone's decisions are based on self-interest.

At this point, it's not about guessing which option is better for you, but about having to choose...

Erase past mistakes, embrace feelings never before experienced, don't run away, don't ignore...

Reed woke up, his fingers filled with immense strength, and he grabbed the tentacle inserted into his fingertips and held it in his palm.

"Some...troublesome things just popped into my head..."

"I don't know why... but I feel that killing you... would be better!"

1. [Erase past mistakes and embrace the good times]

2. [Living in past misunderstandings and making no changes]

Reed chose 1...
